RT Dissertation/Thesis T1 Determination of transformation products formed during water disinfection by chromatographic techniques coupled to quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry A1 Sieira Nóvoa, Benigno José K1 Emerging contaminant K1 liquid chromatography K1 gas chromatograhy K1 mass spectrometry K1 WWTP K1 wastewater K1 transformation product K1 toxicity AB Emerging contaminants is one of the most interesting topics in the scientificcommunity nowadays. Due to the inefficiency in WWTP for eliminating compounds from waters, contaminants gothrough all the barriers and reach ending waters for re-use. That is the reason why since the last years, thepresence of several substances in environmental sources such as waters, is increasing and becoming a humanhealth threat. In this thesis, studies about the degradation of emerging contaminants were performed. Indegradation processes, regarding the method, the compounds are transformed into other new structures, withunknown toxicity activity. The elucidation of these new substances, as well the parameters about their toxicity, isalso evaluated in this work.
